Cómo hombres y mujeres aprenden movimientos de manera autodirigida: diferencias de género en la utilización de las estrategias de aprendizaje

Abstract

Learning strategies, defined as specific and situational learning activities, have been a topic of psychological research for many years, mostly in academic context. The findings indicate gender differences in the use of learning strategies. This paper presents a study in which male and female subjects (N = 30) autonomously learned how to juggle balls. The learning strategies were measured by a questionnaire. The results reveal numerous gender differences in the use of single learning strategies rather than in the use of types of learning strategies
